An exhibition featuring the embroidery work of Chinese ethnic groups kicks off at Heilongjiang Provincial Museum on July 25.

The exhibited items are some 40 embroidery works featuring the distinctive culture of Chinese ethnic groups living on the border between China and Russia, including those from the Oroqen ethnic group and Manchu ethnic group, which both inhabit Heilongjiang province in Northeast China.

Visitors will also have the chance to enjoy traditional embroidery by local craftsmen at the exhibition.
